December 5th

December 5th-  Addie was invited to a birthday party for a little girl in her class.  The invitation came in the mail last Saturday.  The party was a runway extravaganza and luncheon.  I explained to Addie that I thought this would be a girlie party.  She said she wanted to go.  So this morning we went to the party.  It was a dress up party but luckily there were all sorts of costumes.  Addie was a dinosaur, a knight, a ninja and a biker.  She had a ton of fun.

I fell asleep earlier tonight.  I woke up just a bit ago and realized I hadn't taken a picture for the day.  I went back in my room to find Addie and Winston on my bed.  This is a common site around here.  Now I need to go carry Addie to her room.  Good night!

December 3rd.  Addie is reading her book that the teacher sent home from school.  Addie is a very good reader!  I am so proud of her.

December 2nd

  I came home from Bible study this evening to my lil tattoo girl.   Apparently her daddy let her put on as many tattoos she could fit on her arm.  She told me the tats made her tougher.  I wouldn't have let her put that many tattoos on her arm.  Then she did this pose.

December 1st

December 1st --Tonight we went to the Christmas parade. (Here is the rest of the story..I didnt get to finish this last night as Addie was having a melt down.)  Addie and I walked over to watch the parade.  The place we usually watch from is about 4 blocks from the house.  Bill met us there a few minutes later.  It was cold but not as cold as last year.  It turns out where we were standing was a little girl and her family that Addie goes to Addie's school and aftercare program.  She is older than Addie.  She looked at Addie and said, "Addison is that you??"  Addie said, "Hi Lauren."  I was glad Addie had a friend to watch the parade with since her cousin had other plans.  The parade was nice but at times I wish it were during the day so you can see better.  Not all the floats or cars had lights.  But our favorite part is when Santa comes around in the fire truck!!!
